TO ALL WHOM I'l MAY CONOERN:

Be it known that I, JOSEPH M. CHAPLIN, of Morrisville, Lumoille county,and State of Vermont, have invented Improvements in Tin Potato-Washerand Tin Pen Combined; and I hereby declare the following to be an exactdescription thereof, reference'being had to the accompanying drawings,and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of thisspecification.

Figure 1 represents :m elevation of the machine.

Figure 2, a. cross-section.

A represents the poteto-wasl1er, cylindrieQl-ehuped, with a. lid, B, atthe top, und cross-bars, C C, at the bottom. D D are half-round iouts,attached to therinside of the cylinder, four or more in number, for thepurpose of scattering the potatoes as the cylinder A is revolved. Thecylinder A has a. crank, E, at one end, that rests on the edge of thepan G. The other end of the cylinder A is'supported by ojournal, H, withthe double hooked ends J J. Thejournul H is movable, and is passed intoan aperture in the centre bar C, in the bottom of the cylinder. Thehooked end ofvjournal H rests in a tube, K, at the side ofthe pam G, andthe cylinder is thus suspended and revolved on the top edge ofthe pan.The crunk, E, is attached to the top of the lid B by a screw-nut.

What claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Potent, is
